‘I don’t have a day off ’til August!’: Gemma Collins reveals plan to start trying for a baby with fiancé Rami Hawash will have to wait until summer due to demanding Chicago schedule

Gemma Collins has revealed she might try for a baby with fiancé Rami Hawash in the summer. 

The ex-TOWIE star, 41, admitted that since being snatched up for the role of Mama Morton in the UK and Ireland tour of the Chicago The Musical, she is ‘so busy’, but hasn’t diverted her attention away from becoming a mother. 

Gemma, who looked sensational in a fuchsia feather ensemble in her latest Instagram photo, said: ‘Doing Chicago, I don’t have a day off until August. I might start trying for a baby then. I’m so busy!’

Rami, 46, already has a son Tristan, three, from another relationship, and the reality star heavily documented their ‘first family holiday’ on social media last month.   

Gemma reunited with former fiancé Rami during lockdown, seven years after breaking off their original engagement.

The star admitted earlier this year they are now looking ahead to their wedding after he proposed for the second time, but is reluctant to make definite marriage plans with the businessman until his divorce from his first wife is finalised. 

Confirming her engagement to The Times, she said: ‘Yeah, but we can’t really come out and say anything yet because Ram was married before and his paperwork has not come through, so until that’s officially signed, we’ve not said anything.

‘They’ve not been together for two years. I know her, she’s got a partner, she’s as good as gold. There’s a child involved, he’s only three, obviously I love him to death. 

‘But until that paperwork’s signed I can’t come out.’ 

It comes after Gemma’s opening night of her one woman show at the Manchester Opera House on Tuesday.

She donned an all-black outfit and hid her eyes behind a pair of sparkly diamond sunglasses, as she threw up a peace sign while running through her act on stage.

She practiced hard alongside comedian Stephen Bailey, while she admitted on her Instagram Stories that she was getting in trouble for ‘jumping and prancing’ around the stage.  

The tour is two and half years in the making, after it was rescheduled from last October.

Gemma is also gearing up to star in a very different theatre tour next month. 

The reality star is set to play Mama Morton in the UK and Ireland tour of the Chicago The Musical in May, taking over the role from singer Sheila Ferguson. 

Gemma has long been passionate about the arts, having studied dance and earning a place at the renowned Sylvia Young Theatre School.

British theatre producer David Ian said: ‘We were completely stunned by Gemma’s audition. She’s an undeniable force both on and off stage, and we can’t wait to see her portrayal of Mama Morton on tour. 

‘Audiences across the country are in for a treat!’

Gemma will be joined in the production by former Coronation Street star Faye Brookes, who will take on the lead role of Roxie Hart. Djalenga Scott stars as Velma Kelly, Jamie Baughan as Amos Hart and B.E. Wong as Mary Sunshine. The role of Billy Flynn is yet to be announced. 

Gemma will join the tour at the Sunderland Empire from Tuesday May 31, ahead of playing Cardiff New Theatre, Blackpool Winter Gardens, Sheffield Lyceum, Norwich Theatre Royal and New Theatre, Oxford.

Chicago follows the story of Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly, two murderesses who find themselves in jail together awaiting trial in 1920s Chicago. 

The role of Mama Morton, the corrupt but nurturing matron of the Cook County Jail, was made famous by Queen Latifah in the 2002 movie adaptation of the musical.
